Hi
I took delivery of this mount a couple of weeks ago. No observing as I have been concentrating on drift alignment on a pier, collimating one ota and waiting on another ota and camera.
However the last few nights I've been trying to get a 3 star alignment but the synscan keeps telling me the alignment failed.
If I do an alignment but do not centre the stars I get the successful message. If I centre the stars I get the fail.
My drift alignment is pretty solid - no north/south drift after 10 minutes.
Can anyone advise please.
Cheers
Mark
